he used to tour around whit his dad rigth? i think he is on a video jammin whit him on utube - muddy waters howlin wolf a live performance in the 80s good stuff too
can definitely tell who his daddy was! but a legitimate talent in his own right! glad he didn't just ride his daddy's name (Hank Williams, Jr) or just wind up being a Muddy cover band.
Just one of the most prominent things I like about Big Bill, is that his sound is so Unique, no one would know who's son he was untill and unless they heard him shout from the diapham, the only way Muddy Waters Family would......Yup, he's soooo respectfull.....I hope that fabulous harp player is related to Cary Bell Harrington,.....Love those guys, so grateful for thier Sons.....PeaceLoveBlues...spread the news !
Willie's harp sounds like in the '50, & he looks as an old legendary Indian Chief. Kenny is beatbeating more than his father ( really possible?) . What a family.
Big Bill just a little bit noisy ,erm.. no? I have seen Muddy about 20 times, & he really didn't sound exactly like that...But, what a nice set.
@2quundar - This was an awesome show! Big Bill is an amazing talent in his own right. He is not trying to sound like his father - however, the comparisons are always going to be inevitable. Check out a live show if you can sometime.
Ive seen thousands of video's on here and this is the best video ive ever seen Im proud of you Big Bill and your daddy would be damn proud of how you carried the music on That was also some of the best harp playing ive ever heard. Fantastic! R.B
Greatness...it's in the blood.
